i booked for this tour but i was the only one confirmed. Victor tours requires at least 3 guests to make the tour so they suggested me to do the Novi sad tour (norther Serbia) and that was Amazing. i truly recommend this company and this tour. The guide Ivana is the best....she is very fluent in english and explains every detail. Every stop is a PLUS!!!!

Absolutely loved the guides and their dogs! We were hunting for black truffles for more than two hours and found plenty of them. Afterwards we had a wondeful country side-style lunch with some local wines. We 100% recommend this activity to people who enjoy country-side, light hiking picking mushrooms or berries

Our guide Jelica was very polite and very knowledgeable. It would have been good to go the football grounds as there is a lot religious content.
